Dépôt ferroviaire de Mohon

The Mohon railway complex features two large rotundas connected by a workshop, designed to accommodate thirty-two tracks for locomotive maintenance and repairs.

The East Railway Company constructed this depot between 1906 and 1908 following the loss of facilities in Mulhouse and Montigny-lès-Metz to Germany in 1870.

The industrial heritage site represents French railway engineering from the early 20th century through its steel architecture and mechanical installations.

The facility opens to visitors during Heritage Days in September 2024, with guided tours available through advance registration on affluences.com.

The preserved rotunda houses historical locomotives from the Ardennes region, while the workshop maintains its original bridge transporter and clock from 1908.
